Chapter 226 Sakura Mansion
Chapter 226 Sakura Mansion
Seeing that she was wary, Gu Yunqing hurriedly explained:
"Oh, I'm a traveling merchant. I saw that the goods in your store are rare and I want to buy a large batch to sell back, so I want to talk to your boss."
The shopkeeper said:
"Oh, you came at an inopportune time. Our boss is no longer in Dingxi County, but it's the same if you talk to me."
Gu Yunqing hesitated for a moment and said:
"Forget it, I'll take a look again."
As he spoke, Gu Yunqing casually bought a small mirror, then hurriedly paid the bill and left.
He knew that the shopkeeper was unwilling to reveal his boss's whereabouts in order to protect Qi and the others, and he could not reveal his identity either, so he could only investigate secretly.
After leaving this shop, Gu Yunqing went to the shop next door and pretended to choose ointment for his family, but in fact he was lingering and didn't want to leave.
Fortunately, the shop was doing good business, with people coming and going, and the salesperson didn't pay much attention to him.
He spent half an hour choosing inside, and finally heard the store clerks talking about the boss.
"We don't have much inventory in our warehouse. Our boss is traveling a long way to Beijing, and I don't know if he will be able to deliver the goods to us." A salesperson said as he pushed a cart and put the goods taken from the warehouse on the shelves.
Another salesperson said as he was displaying the goods:
"You've only been here for a short time, so you don't know. Although our boss is in charge of the business, these goods were all collected by the boss's daughter. The eldest daughter is very good at doing business. It is said that many of these things are imported."
The salesperson pushing the cart said:
"I've only been here a few days, and I haven't met the eldest lady yet. I don't know if I'll have the chance."
"I've seen her twice. Our eldest lady looks like a fairy. When our goods are sold out in a few days, the eldest lady will definitely come back to deliver the goods, and you will be able to see her then."
After they put the goods in place, they went to greet the customers, but Gu Yunqing frowned.
He was not too surprised when his family returned to Beijing. After all, the Gu family had been rehabilitated, and the news would have reached the northwest sooner or later. It was just that it happened a little faster than he expected, and he couldn't catch up no matter how hard he tried.
But these goods were obtained by Xier, which surprised him a little.
There were many things he had never seen before. The two women just now said that many of them were imported goods. He did know that some merchants in Nanyang would deal in some rare goods, but how did Xier know the merchants in Nanyang?
too weird.
Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore. I’ll find Xier and the others and ask them and I’ll know.
Gu Yunqing left Dingxi County and chased all the way to the capital.

Wajima Island. Dusk.
The two ships docked at Edo Wharf. This wharf was also thanks to Gumbu Changchuang.
In order to invade the Kingdom of Anning in the future, he began to build docks and constructed many large ships after traveling through time.
The two large ships brought two thousand naval soldiers to fight against the Japanese. Gu Xi felt that the number of ships was too few, so she decided to send a few more ships to the navy when she returned.
"Imperial Master, how's your information going? How many soldiers does the Japanese have?" Eunuch Ma stepped forward and asked with a smile.
Gu Xi also smiled back at him and said:
"Oh, from today on, Japan will no longer have any soldiers and horses. We will take over Japan from now on. I plan to give this place a name. How about calling it Sakura Mansion?"
The main reason is that the name of Wozhou Prefecture sounds too harsh, and in Japan, apart from the silver mines, Gu Xi thinks that cherry blossoms are pretty good.
"what?!"
"What?!"
Eunuch Ma and Li Quan were both confused.
They both turned to Chu Zhao:
"General Chu, what does the Imperial Master mean by this?"
The Imperial Master must be joking. He must be joking.
Chu Zhao said proudly:
"It's what you think it is. The current Japanese country, oh no, this is now a prefecture of Anning Country."
Li Quan's lips trembled with excitement, and he slapped his thigh:
"The Imperial Master is truly a god!"
It's only been two days, and they have conquered another country? Even though this country is small, the Japanese pirates are still very fierce.
The smile on Eunuch Ma's face gradually cracked.
Which means, he's a step late again, right?
What is this thing called?
The emperor sent him to supervise the army, and he rushed to supervise the army, and every time he arrived, the war was over.
Who starts a war so quickly?
Emperor's Palace.
Gu Xi summoned the civil and military officials and the remaining four princes.
"Everyone, has the disbanding of the army been completed?" Gu Xi communicated with them using a translation app.
Everyone looked at the square box in Gu Xi's hand, including Li Quan and Eunuch Ma.
A minister said:
"Angel, all troops have been disbanded."
Gu Xi's mouth twitched, and Lin Xiaoxuan's mouth twitched.
Only Chu Zhao looked as if it was a matter of course.
The messengers of God are simply called angels by these people, well, that's fine.
The army was able to disband so quickly thanks to Gumbu Changchuang.
He wanted to train his troops using his own methods, so he recruited all the capable Japanese soldiers and concentrated them for training near Edo Castle.
So in the morning, as soon as the "Emperor" issued an order, all the troops received the notification within just one hour.
Most of the soldiers were local farmers and fishermen. They had not come here voluntarily. When they heard that the army was going to be disbanded, they all cheered and packed their bags and went home.
As for those newly promoted generals, after only a few months of serving as officials, they were left alone and could only return to their own homes and look after their own mothers.
Li Quan looked at Gu Xi with admiration. The national master was so powerful! He could disband a country's army just by saying so!
Eunuch Ma couldn't help but get excited.
He originally thought that Japan must be a poor and barbaric place, so it would be so easy for the national teacher to conquer it.
After seeing the palace and these ministers, he felt that this was just a small court. Even if it was not as good as the Anning Kingdom, it was almost the same as the Turks!
He believed that the national teacher was a god from heaven!
Gu Xi looked at the people in front of him and continued to use the translation app:
"From today on, Japan will be the territory of our An Ning country, and it will be called Sakura Prefecture. The army of An Ning country is just outside the city, and they will protect the safety of Sakura Prefecture."
She paused and glanced at the people below her.
"Of course, if anyone is dissatisfied, they can stand up and speak out."
Two princes and several ministers exchanged glances, and some of them quietly looked up and glanced at Gu Xi.
Gu Xi silently said to Prince Takemoto Tsutomu, the third son of the Emperor, who was looking at her: Use mind reading.
Takemoto Qinshou’s voice:
"I don't want to just give up my power like this! How about we unite and resist?"
Gu Xi looked at him and smiled playfully:
"Everyone, did you see the mushroom cloud over Mt. Nibi today? The God of Peace thought that there were things that could harm people there, so he blew it up. From now on, Sakura Prefecture will never allow anyone to have evil intentions, otherwise it would be disrespectful to the gods! Think carefully, everyone."
Everyone paused, and there was silence for a moment. Everyone lowered their heads, and no one dared to raise any objections.
"We will obey the angel's orders!"
Li Quan and Eunuch Ma looked at each other. Was that beautiful cloud also created by the imperial master?
